Jacob Gottlieb is the second winner of the SmartBiz $500 prize. He’s the owner of Prime Medical Alert that operates out of Phoenix, AZ.

If you’re concerned about the safety of yourself or a loved one in the home, Gottlieb’s company has you covered. They distribute medical alert systems, also known as a medical alarm, to provide security without losing personal independence. Prime Medical Alert tailors each order to fit the customer’s specific needs.

A 5-star Google+ review highlights why the company is so successful. Lorin D. writes, ” … Incredibly easy to set up… it was nice speaking to an actual person rather than an automated voice. The whole thing was quick and easy, I would definitely recommend it.” You can learn more on the Prime Medical Alert website.
